Como fazer Triple Layer Carrot Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting

  1. **Prep the Pans:** Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease three 9-inch diameter cake pans with 1 ½-inch high sides. Line the bottoms with waxed paper and grease the paper.
  2. **Combine Wet Ingredients:** In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together 1 ½ cups granulated sugar and 1 cup vegetable oil until well combined. Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  3. **Combine Dry Ingredients:** In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  4. **Combine Wet and Dry:** Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. **Add in the Carrot Goodness:** Gently fold in 2 cups grated carrots, 1 cup chopped pecans, and ½ cup raisins.
  6. **Bake the Layers:** Divide the batter evenly among the prepared pans. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the cakes begin to pull away from the sides of the pans.
  7. **Cool the Cakes:** Let the cakes cool in the pans on wire racks for 15 minutes. Then, carefully invert the cakes onto the racks to cool completely.
  8. **Make the Frosting:** While the cakes are cooling, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, ½ cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter, 3 cups powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
  9. **Assemble the Cake:** Place one cake layer on a serving platter. Frost the top with ¾ cup of the frosting. Repeat with the second cake layer and another ¾ cup of frosting. Top with the remaining cake layer.
  10. **Frost and Decorate:** Frost the entire cake with the remaining frosting, creating decorative swirls on the sides and top.
  11. **Serve and Enjoy:** Serve the cake chilled or at room temperature.
